Figure 2: Left: Vertical long axis reformats in end-systole (top) and end-diastole (bottom) display excellent suppression of fat and muscle without off-resonance induced banding artifacts seen in bSSFP. Right: End-systolic short-axis stack from apex to base displays benefits of isotropic spatial resolution for retrospective reformatting of the entire heart in any orientation.

Mentions:
Figure 1 shows images from phantom scans for a sweep of MT off-resonance frequencies and demonstrates the potential for simultaneous suppression of muscle (agar) and fat. In-vivo results are presented in Figure 2 for two reformats: vertical long axis in end-systole and end-diastole (left) and an end-systolic base to apex short axis stack (right). Excellent blood pool to myocardium contrast and fat suppression are observed. Isotropic spatial resolution allows for retrospective whole-heart reformats in any orientation.
